What does victory look like in an information war?
Is this type of warfare simply continuous?
Either in general or for this chapter in history specifically. Would love to hear thoughts on this. I’ve been reading some information warfare literature and haven’t yet seen an answer to this fundamental question.
On one hand, I agree. “Shadow war”.
On the other, have we not been trying to wake the masses all along?
I’m not sure how you keep these things separate.

What is Information Warfare?
Information Warfare in its broadest sense is a struggle over the information and communications process, a struggle that began with the advent of human communication and conflict. Over the past few decades, the rapid rise in information and communication technologies and their increasing prevalence in our society has revolutionized the communications process and with it the significance and implications of information warfare. Information warfare is the application of destructive force on a large scale against information assets and systems, against the computers and networks that support the four critical infrastructures (the power grid, communications, financial, and transportation).
